/* repl5_backoff.c */
/*

 The backoff object implements a backoff timer. The timer can operate
 with a fixed interval, an expontially increasing interval, or a
 random interval.

 The caller creates a new backoff timer, specifying the backoff behavior
 desired (fixed, exponential, or random), the initial backoff value,
 and the maximum backoff interval. This does not start the timer - the
 backoff_reset() function must be used to actually start the timer.

 The backoff_reset() function takes an optional function that
 will be called when the backoff time has expired, and a void *
 that can be used to pass arguments into the callback function.

 When the time expires, the callback function will be called. If no
 callback function has been provided, the timer simply expires.
 A timer does not recompute the next interval and begin timing until
 the backoff_step() function is called. Therefore, callers that
 do not install a callback function may use the timer by polling.
 When a callback function is provided, the timer is typically reset
 inside the callback function.
